flashguyOfficer down in Richardson, Texas
On 7 Feb 2018 Officer David Sherrard of the Richardson Police Department was shot and killed while responding to a disturbance at an apartment complex. Another man was killed and the shooter is in custody.
Officer Sherrod was one of several RPD officers who performed off-duty uniformed service at my church on Sunday mornings, and the congregation is deeply affected by his passing. Prayer blankets were prepared and given to family members and a fund to defray some expenses was set up (to which I did make a contribution).
Prayers for the family are welcome.

flashguyI am curious. How come everyone else's posts of this nature get so much more activity than this one? Do I need to post a news article?

gatopescadoI grew up in Richardson and it's a real shock when you hear about a Police Officer being killed in your home town. My brother has a friend who is a Richardson Police Officer and he was not on duty that night , but said it has really shook up the whole department. That is why they are going to have the Plano police handle the investigation. Prayers definitely sent.

old rugged crossFlashguy, every man and women lost on duty and serving in our Military is a terrible loss for family, friends and our country.
They all die hero's, but a terrible loss none the less.
RIP Officer Sherrard. Prayer for family and friends.

flashguyORC, I know, and there have been way too many such incidents lately. I'm sure that the family appreciates all the prayers offered in their behalf.
